epiphany-2.24.2-alt1 How to reproduce: start epiphany, click on the location field, press 'q'. Result: a new tab opens. Expected: 'q' is input. This happens in any input fields (examples: ya.ru, bugzilla.altlinux.org ). This is also true for 'й', which is on the same key as 'q'. (The capitals 'Q' or 'Й' are OK.) Workaround: paste 'q'.
After removing ~/.gnome2/accels/epiphany, it works fine. I don't know who created that file with crazy bindings though!
But after a while, the keybindings got spoilt again, and the file there now again contains a strange line: gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/SpecialToolbarActions/FileNewTab" "q" This happens without me intervening into the settings (there are even no keybindings in the preferences menu of epiphany). So this behavior should be fixed. I attach the wrong keybindings file, which I didn't voluntarily create.
Created attachment 3295 [details] /home/ivan/.gnome2/accels/epiphany I didn't create it, it simply appeared there with the crazy line: (gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/SpecialToolbarActions/FileNewTab" "q") .
I have understood the source of this binding: I pressed Alt+F Q, and this bound the first menu entry (New Tab) to Q. (Alt+F Q is a way to close the browser in some other browsers, that's why I pressed it.)
